Hi,

Anybody have any ideas on products available to protect the top of the rear bumper when dogs are jumping in and out?

Something self adhesive , the length of the bumper would be ideal, but it would have to look respectable if going to be left on the car permanently.

On my last car, a Honda CRV, the bumper looked as if it had been gouged out with a chisel & Stanley knife from the dogs jumping in and out, scratching their nails on the bumper each time. It's amazing how sharp their nails are and how deep the scuff marks and scratches can become over a period of time.

Thanks,

Jim

You can pick up self-adhesive metal strips for the top of the bumper from ebay relatively easily, I think I paid about £35 for the one I had including postage. Following an inadvertent remodelling of the rear-end of my X-Trail, it's now got a screw-on brushed-metal plate which I believe is an official Nissan part, rumour has it that it wasn't cheap though.

This works for me but its a bit more than a bumper protector!!

Try sill guard from www.gbdriver.co.uk £13 for a 2.36M strip.

The other option may be "helicopter tape" (see fleabay). Clear, adhesive and nearly invisible when applied.
